      Yep. I meant just joining the shaft to the electric motor must have had some crazy gearboxes to deal with the converging shafts.

                      I am disgusted at the depth of your hypocrisy! You are using 3D printed props? That stands against everything I know about you! Then there is a side of me that (said with an evil laugh) we are winning you over to the good/modern world. All joking aside, I love what I continually learn from you. That is a brilliant way to reinforce and build up a prop. I like the using styrene as a gauge to keep the props even in depth. Thank you.
                      If you can cut, drill, saw, hit things and swear a lot, you're well on the way to building a working model sub.

                          You do know where you can stick that evil cackle of yours... right?

                          In association with Joe Hoffman -- who provided the robot produced masters -- I'm turning it all into tooling that will permit production of 1/96 Type-21 hulls.

















                          The plan is for me and Joe to have our boats ready for this year's Flee-Run in N.C. Our mission: Harras and destroy all Allied shipping and make the waters safe for National Socialism.

                            Can't you just use trimmed down 1/72 Type VII/IX props like what you did with the Chinese Type 092 SSBN?
